The Property
A charming mix of cosy and airy, traditional and contemporary, this beautiful home looks out from a quiet square onto Reeth’s village green.
With Reeth an enviable starting point for so many Swaledale walks, runs, and cycle tours, this lovely house with its south facing garden, is under 5 minutes walk to all the village shops, bakeries and weekly market, community orchard, pubs, hotel and cafes, ice cream parlour, garage, doctors, library, the village hall etc.
It is thought that Metcalfes Farm was a working farm for around 200 years and certainly the house as it is now is one of the oldest in Reeth.
With views north and south, the house looks out beyond the village green to Fremington Edge - this beautiful, ever changing view is seen from the front door, kitchen, one of the double bedrooms and the landing. To the south, the hills and moorlands of Harkerside are seen from the dining room, sitting room as well as the 2 other double bedrooms and, of course, from the garden.
Summer and winter sun seeps into the gorgeous cottage garden from early morning through well into the evening, and the current owners frequently have breakfast, lunch and dinner al fresco in the tucked away corner patio, one of two sitting areas in the garden.
With all the natural southern light and the result of a renovation (2009), the house is bright and spacious. Imagine a sofa, piano or dresser in the roomy open plan kitchen/dining room, and look out for the original Yorkshire stone floors, pretty fireplaces, 3 feet deep window seats and all the architecturally beautiful old beams, each a gentle nod to its historic roots and rural cottage living feeling.
Parking for 2 cars near to the front door.
It’s a fabulous, solidly built, carefully renovated and well maintained beautiful home, ready to move into and live life fully from your first day here.
